Ingredientes
- 1 dozen eggs
- 250 g. sugar syrup
- 300 g. sifted flour
- 500 g. sugar
- Cinnamon
- Cornflour
Preparation
Beat 10 egg whites until foamy and add the syrup, then the flour and cinnamon. Make a fine dough with this paste by stretching it out on a surface over which you have put a greased paper. Put it in the oven at low temperature and cook for 20 minutes.
With cornflour spiced with cinnamon, make a pastry cream and cover the cake with it after it comes out of the oven.
With the cream inside, roll the cake up and cut it into strips approximately 3 centimetres in width. Paint a mixture of egg yolk and sugar on them and brown them in the oven.
This mixture is made with a litre ofwater, 1/2 kg. of sugar and a cinnamon stick. Add the sugar and the cinnamon to the water and bring it to a boil to make a syrup. When it is done, remove the cinnamon and add the beaten egg yolks. Sett the mixture over a low heat and stir with a wooden spoon, removing it from the heat just before it boils.
